13.65 @ the Rock
13.65 @ the Rock
Or at least that's what the time slip said. It was test and tune and Rockingham tonite and they decided to have a shootout. Well guess what: I won! Got a two ft. trophy to show for it!
However, my time slip does not seem correct.
R/t .850
60' 2.226
330' 5.997
1/8 9.058
MPH 80.85
1000' 11.707
1/4 13.650
MPH 319.45 (no this is not a typo. This was my first clue that something may be wrong)
Second, there is no way that a 9.058 1/8 mile can run a 13.650 1/4 unless it had some incredible burst at the end.

13.65 with a 2.22 short time? Dayumm!!! Maybe that 319 trap is correct
. Just kidding you--that is a great time considering the short time. You suck BTW (mumbles to self about being the only modded '02 in the 14's

CONFIRMATION!!!!!!
I couldn't stand the uncertainty, so I called the track today to discuss my slip. The guy that runs the tower told me that last night, the sensor that read the final MPH had water in it, therefore posting some incorrect numbers. However, he said that the traps measuring the ET's were fine, and that my times were correct. This is an IHRA track, so the clocks are calibrated frequently. So officially, my personal best is 13.65@?
